Rabindranath Tagore
Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941), Nobel laureate for literature (1913), was one
of modern India's greatest poets and thinkers, and the composer of independent India's
and Bangladesh's national anthems (More on Tagore and India's
national anthem, Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka).

Special Note:
This website was originally put together by Dr. Sandeep Mitra in 1991 (while at
Binghamton University, the State University of New York) in commemoration of the
50th anniversary of Tagore's passing. Dr. Mitra has passionately
chaperoned and nurtured this website since then, with the intent of bringing
Tagore before the world. His commitment to this goal has been unwavering.
It is our hope that his effort has connected many in India and the world to the
phenomenon that was Rabindranath Tagore, and his Universalist message in the
broadest sense of the word.
